How to recover the refrigerant from an industrial chiller to the receiver?
During the maintenance or servicing of industrial chillers, it is necessary to recover the refrigerant before proceeding with subsequent maintenance work. There are two common methods for recovering refrigerant from industrial chillers: one is to recover the refrigerant into a receiver, and the other is to recover it into a refrigerant cylinder. 1.

During the maintenance or servicing of industrial chillers, it is necessary to recover the refrigerant before proceeding with subsequent maintenance work.

1. How to recover the refrigerant from an industrial chiller into a receiver?
Note: Our industrial chillers are equipped with high/low pressure controllers. When recovering refrigerant, the contacts of the high/low pressure controllers should be kept normally closed to prevent the machine from stopping due to pressure issues during refrigerant recovery.
The specific steps to recover refrigerant from an industrial chiller into a receiver are:
1. Open all valves of the industrial chiller's refrigeration system, and turn the suction shut-off valve counterclockwise to fully open it. Then use a multi-purpose connector to connect the service valve to the suction shut-off valve.
2. Close the service valve and adjust the suction shut-off valve to the three-way position.
3. Turn clockwise to close the outlet shut-off valve of the receiver.
4. Start the refrigeration compressor of the industrial chiller; the main refrigerant in the evaporator will be drawn into the condenser and receiver.
2. How to recover the refrigerant from an industrial chiller into a cylinder?
Refrigerant is stored in special cylinders. When recovering refrigerant from an industrial water chiller into a cylinder:
1. First, connect a service valve with a pressure vacuum gauge to the bypass port of the suction shut-off valve, and set the suction shut-off valve to the three-way position.
2. Turn the discharge shut-off valve counterclockwise to fully open it, unscrew the plug of the bypass port on the discharge shut-off valve, and install a multi-purpose connector.
3. Use a hose to connect the empty refrigerant cylinder to the multi-purpose connector on the discharge shut-off valve, but do not tighten the connector on the refrigerant cylinder end yet.
4. Slightly open the discharge shut-off valve to expel air from the connecting hose, then tighten the connector.
5. Fully open the valve of the refrigerant cylinder and continuously rinse the refrigerant cylinder with cooling water.
6. Use the pneumatic compressor and slowly close the discharge shut-off valve clockwise; the refrigerant inside the industrial chiller will gradually be compressed into the refrigerant cylinder.
Whether the refrigerant from the industrial chiller is recovered into a receiver or a cylinder, once the recovery is complete, the pressure on the suction pressure gauge should be 0.01 MPa. After stopping the compressor, if the pressure does not rise, it indicates that the refrigerant recovery is complete. If the pressure rises, it means the refrigerant has not been fully recovered and the above steps should be repeated.

Evaporator working principle: The heating chamber provides the heat required for evaporation to the liquid, causing the liquid to boil and vaporize; the evaporation chamber completely separates the gas and liquid phases. The vapor generated in the heating chamber carries a large amount of liquid droplets. When it reaches the larger space of the evaporation chamber, these liquids are separated from the vapor through their own condensation or the action of demisters. Usually, the demister is installed at the top of the evaporation chamber. According to the movement of the solution in the evaporator, there are: Circulation type. The boiling solution passes multiple times over the heating surface in the heating chamber, such as central circulation tube type, basket type, external heating type, Lewen type, and forced circulation type. Single pass type. The boiling solution in the heating chamber...

7 Practical Heat Exchanger Technical Q&A
1. How does a heat exchanger transfer heat? Answer: In the most common wall-type heat exchanger, the main heat transfer methods are conduction and convection. The hot fluid first transfers heat to one side of the tube wall by convection, then the heat is conducted through the tube wall to the other side, and finally, the heat is transferred from the other side of the tube wall to the cold fluid by convection, thus completing the heat transfer process of the heat exchanger. 2. How does the flow velocity of the medium affect the heat transfer effect? Answer: The higher the flow velocity of the medium inside the heat exchanger, the greater the heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, increasing the flow velocity of the medium inside the heat exchanger can greatly improve the heat transfer effect.

What are the functions of water purifier filters? What impurities can they filter out?
How important is the filter cartridge of a water purifier? Those who have bought a water purifier know that sellers always remind us to replace the filter cartridge regularly and timely. This is because after using the filter cartridge for a certain period, it will consume itself continuously due to filtering too many impurities until it reaches the end of its life. So, what exactly are the functions of the water purifier's filter cartridge? What can it filter? What are the functions of the water purifier filter cartridge? What impurities can it filter? Below, we will introduce the functions of the commonly used reverse osmosis water purifier filter cartridge. Generally speaking, the reverse osmosis water purifier has 5 stages of filter cartridges, which we will understand one by one below.
